I Wanna Be Around

[Verse 1:]
I wanna be around to pick up the pieces
When somebody breaks your heart
Some somebody twice as smart as I.

[Chorus:]
A somebody who will swear to be true
Like you used to do with me
Who'll leave you to learn
That mis'ry loves company, wait and see.

[Verse 2:]
I wanna be around to see how she does it
When she breaks your heart to bits
Let's see if the puzzle fits so fine.

[Pre-Chorus:]
And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet
As I sit there applauding from a front row seat
When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine.

[Chorus:]
A somebody who will swear to be true
Like you used to do with me
Who'll leave you to learn
That mis'ry loves company, wait and see.

[Verse 3:]
I wanna be around to see how she does it
When she breaks your heart to bits
Let's see if the puzzle fits so fine.

[Outro:]
And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet
As I sit there applauding from a front row seat
When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine
When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine.
